In his remarks, Al-Shaibani highlighted the strategic role of Syrian expatriates in the reconstruction process, calling them "ambassadors of Syrian resilience." He stressed the importance of preserving cultural identity and national unity among Syrians abroad, while encouraging them to participate in investment and development initiatives within Syria.

The minister’s visit comes amid ongoing diplomatic outreach by Damascus to restore regional and international ties, with a focus on building bridges with Syrians living in host countries such as Russia. Community members welcomed the dialogue and shared concerns related to consular services, legal documentation, and participation in national initiatives.

Moscow remains a key ally of the Syrian government, and the meeting reflected ongoing cooperation between the two nations. Al-Shaibani’s engagement with the diaspora in Russia is part of a broader diplomatic mission to strengthen Syria’s foreign relations and deepen popular connections with loyalist communities abroad.

The event concluded with mutual affirmations of support for Syrian sovereignty and reconstruction, reinforcing the narrative of collective resilience and national revival.
